@MengTo Happy for you for the great move! Im considering if it’s better for my family too, for all the same reasons :) did you just move your current business there or start a completely new one?

We just moved to Singapore. It’s a dream to live here. ⁃ 26-31º all year ⁃ Super safe & clean ⁃ Great education & services ⁃ Started a company w/ Sleek ⁃ Sponsored my own visa Rent is expensive (5k), but everything else is affordable, esp taxi and food. Canada has been my home most of my life. It’s generous in space, friendly and peaceful. But my dream was to work in the US. I did for a year, until they kicked me out. Defeated, I went on to travel for 2 years. We fell in love with Singapore and Japan. Didn’t think it was possible to live there because of visas. Then I started @designcodeio and became financially independent. To be near family, we settled back in Canada. We had 2 kids and bought a big house. Life was good. But we only felt alive in the summer, and we always wanted to travel. We just love Asian food and we keep referencing Japan for everything: sushi, ramen, tea, wagyu (told my kids it’s called melt-in-your-mouth), perfect strawberries, muscat grapes, etc. After our Japan/SG trip last winter, it was clear that we wanted to move there permanently. I started to look at Vancouver, Japan or SG to be closer to Asia. After a failed visa attempt and a few tweets, people suggested starting a company and sponsoring my own visa via Sleek. I had no idea such a service existed. Fast forward a couple of months, we were approved and ready to move! The kids are having a blast at the kids parks, shopping malls and swimming pools. So much to explore. It’s still honeymoon phase, but we’re going out almost every day and love that it’s full of Japanese restaurants and groceries (Don Don Donki). Lots of spicy food here, so the kids always prefer Japanese food or fast food. We avoid the latter. As someone who cooks, I appreciate the high-quality ingredients. We plan to visit Japan multiple times a year during the spring break (cherry blossom, they have 2-3 weeks here!), long summer, fall break (yep!) and winter. Of course, we’ll visit other places too, such as Vietnam, Thailand, Australia and Europe. Most importantly, we won’t need to hibernate anymore. Moral of the story: don’t go to Japan. It’ll spoil you.

@pjscow B: L is more clear and the 'laser beam' from the S into the R is longer.

DeFiChain's spirit of decentralization extends beyond the consensus level to other aspects of the project as well, such as communication and branding. This implies that the DeFiChain logo, for instance, is adaptable and can be used by each community member in a flexible manner.

After hearing about the recent break-ins at Brown Loaf Bakery, @Yasir_Naqvi and I decided to stop by and meet Yan – and pick up some treats, of course. Evidently, we weren’t the only one who wanted to show our support – they were sold out of almost everything. #SupportLocal
